Saturday was a great day with just a little rain.
Please sense significant sarcasm when it comes to the rainfall mentioned in this post.
6:04 - Woke-up. Looked at clock and remind myself that was Saturday so I'd better sleep in!
8:30 - Woke-up again and this time got up. It was raining.
9:00 - Headed out the door and to the pharmacy. It sprinkled.
For $3 and help from only men (there were about 6) behind a counter in a teeny tiny pharmacy, I purchased 36 Ibuprofen tablets and a pack of feminine hygiene products. The clerk/pharmacist/English speaker gave the helpful suggestion of which products I should choose as one pack had a buy 15, get 15 free promotion. Why not go the economical route? Then I walked around hood a bit more.
9:40 - Lounging, movie watching and getting ready for day. It rained.
11:00 - Pick-up by Oahn and Angelo for a day of shopping. Our next stop was to grab Nancy and Zach to join us. Rain became stronger. Started to pour.
12:00 - Oahn served as our shopping guide for the day. First, we arrived to the Oberoi Shopping Mall and visited Jasmine's store where I purchased...
a bed cover for my guest bed,
a beautiful pillow for my bed or a guest and
a rug for my bedroom.
Still pouring.
1:25 - Then we went to Mahesh for lunch. Still raining.
Amazing seafood! I loved every bite. We had calamari, tuna tikka and some yummy shrimp that we ate with garlic and plain naan. Yum, yum, yum!
3:00 After we walked through the rain to the Bombay Store where I purchased...
some Bombay inspired mugs and coasters,
curtains for my bedroom and a poster. Poured again.
3:40 - Our last stop was Chimanlals, for stationary that I heart. I purchased a few notes...
and it was still raining.
4:00 - We headed back over the Sea Link to Bandra. I arrived home with all of my goodies around 5 p.m. after Zach and Nancy ran out of the car to pass on a few things I'd forgotten.
6:00 - I talked to my 'rents. So good to catch up. And you'll be surprised to hear that it was still raining.
7:00 - The lovely Angeli arrived to my apartment for a massage. Ahhhhh...and it started to pour when she was leaving.
8:00 - I finished watching the movie I'd started earlier in the day and caught up on a few emails. Rain continued.
9:00 - I did the phone rounds and got to spend time catching up with amazing people like Andrea and Sam and the Goo for a few. Still rained throughout my calls.
12:00 - Now it's Sunday and that means time for bed. Not sure if it's raining or not but really don't care since I'm going to be sleeping. I read a friend's Facebook status that said it's supposed to rain straight for the next three days and in Mumbai we'll receive 10+ inches or rain. That'll just give me time to enjoy some of my new treasures more inside my apartment.
